Hancocks was established in Manchester in 1860 by Josiah Hancock who provided clock winding services to the Mancunian gentry where he visited country houses and mansions to maintain the clocks of the aristocracy. For this time period owning a timepiece was a statement of wealth and authority, a quality that still holds prominence with Hancocks to this day. Due to great success a second Picadilly store was opened in London shortly after, with over 150 years in business Hancocks is now serving it’s third generation of loyal customers, a credit to their impeccable reputation and eye for design.
